The Prime Minister is right: none of this violence or intimidation will be tolerated.
We stand with the victims and communities affected. The police have our full support as they restore calm. 2/2
The brutal knife attack in Belfast this week was sickening, and I am grateful to the emergency services and members of the public who intervened.
The violence that has followed on the streets is also sickening. 1/2
Delighted to meet Ambassador Suzuki to discuss the UK-Japan relationship.
The UK is committed to working together to strengthen our collective security, economic prosperity and cultural partnership.
🇬🇧 🤝 🇯🇵
Proud to share the best of the South West with Ambassador Suzuki.
And slightly embarrassed that the Japanese Ambassador can say “gert lush” in a better Bristolian accent than I can!

AI is going to reshape the British economy.
That’s why our Labour mission to share power, wealth and opportunity is more important than ever - so that we create wealth, good jobs and brilliant public services here in the United Kingdom.
A good job can completely transform someone’s life.
I was grateful to meet young people, care leavers, and the businesses giving them a chance to build their own futures, in the West Midlands, to launch a new partnership to unlock untapped potential.
Earlier this year, I set out plans to modernise the civil service.
Now, for the first time ever (!), pay rises for senior civil servants will be linked to performance - including the delivery of our political priorities.

The government will act to protect young people online.
Our consultation on what those changes should includes closes on Tuesday, but we have already given ministers the legal powers to change the law quickly.
Looking forward to talking about the future of the UK tomorrow on BBC Question Time and how we’re applying Labour values to the big challenges we face as a country.

Wonderful to officially open the refurbished workspaces at St Peter's Hospice in my constituency.
The hospice received a £1m share of a £125m capital funding boost for adult and children’s hospices from this government – the biggest investment in a generation for hospices.
The Government has today, 21 May, published its response to the recommendations of the independent Senior Salaries Review Body (SSRB) on pay for the Senior Civil Service (SCS) for 2026-27.
